So now, after my past giveaways, you've gone crazy and bought all sorts of new handbags. You're swimming in bags, loving all the beautiful fabrics and handy compartments but are now in the predicament of needing new wallets and pouches to go with those fancy bags.

The nice thing about Blissful is that you can request custom orders by viewing her fabric swatches on Flikr here and then ordering the pieces you like in those prints. With three pages of swatches you can't help but find something you love and can't live without. I particularly like the Queen Anne's lace and the storybook prints--I've ordered a mini zippered pouch in "Storybook Friends" that shows pictures from Snow White and Rose Red (you'll have to look hard but it's there) and a checkbook cover in the print "Hedgehogs and Mushrooms" (pictured at right) for my very own.

Thanks to the kindness of Blissful Bags I have two matching zippered pouches to offer as this week's giveaway. One in bright red apples (pictured above) and one juicy green apple. Very pretty and fresh. The thing that I like about the zippered mini pouches is that they're just big enough to carry my credit cards, I.D., any coupons or notes and a key when I don't want to carry my monster wallet everywhere. With the pouch I can easily move my important stuff from one bag to another without having that huge wallet to deal with.

Here's how to win:

Before 12 am Monday go to the giveaway entry form on this page and enter your name and email. I will pick one of the names at random, contact the winner via their email and publish the winner's first name and home town in next Tuesday's post. See the bottom of the entry form for more details.

This is open to all Scribbit readers regardless of where you live. If you can receive a package then you can enter. Good luck!

I am writing a Contest Frenzy Column each week on Momsblogging.com and would like to feature your contests. Can you give me a heads up on the weekend ones so I can feature them on Thursdays? Or should I just mention that you do them on weekends? I'll be featuring your Writing contest this coming week.

My sisters, Mom and I made handbags for our girl's night using your directions. The sewing to attach the handles got a bit frustrating, but we all turned out very cute handbags despite that. Thanks again!

So Cute! I've been checking out the stores to buy a new purse, and this would be a great new addition to my purchase! Love your sit Michelle! Would love to come to Alaska after seeing all your great pictures!
